  > Typos happen. Indeed, and an artifact of autocorrect and mobile UIs is that typos that don't look like typos happen. Apparently, they sometimes mimic usage patterns that are common as non-typos. > In fact, you made one yourself just a couple hours prior One? I should be so lucky. > to ridiculing me about mine The play on the words of your post was not intended as ridicule, but I guess the maxim that tone doesn't translate well into text is as applicable here as ever. > Don't worry though... I won't make fun of you for it, You kind of just did... > because I'm not so desperate to prove my intelligence to internet strangers. See, if you just said “typos happen”, and nothing more, that'd be believable unstated subtext. You kinda went overboard for keeping that last bit credible, though.
